Her gaze returned to Su Hui, a genuine hint of doubt in her beautiful blue eyes.
“Mr. Su Hui, if I may be frank, the doubts you have raised are also my doubts.”
"Aren't you all... also travelers from another world?"
In her view, the undisguised legendary-level aura emanating from Su Hui was proof that he did not belong to this world.
In this apocalyptic world, Su Hui and the people around him are so powerful and special that they are out of place among the survivors of this world.
This world, before being corrupted by the dimensional demon god, was merely a modern technological world, and it was impossible for a powerful being like Su Hui to have been born there.
To know,
The main world has only been in a state of doomsday for a few months.
How is it possible for someone to go from an ordinary person to a legendary powerhouse in just a few months!
This is a complete joke.
But Su Hui, who possesses the system, is just that unreasonable!
Before Su Hui could speak, Merlin, who had been sitting quietly to the side, suddenly spoke, her soft yet ethereal voice ringing out.
"Ms. Ziegler, you may have misunderstood."
Merlin, who had maintained a dignified demeanor, gracefully adjusted the hem of her lace-trimmed skirt, her blood-red pupils gleaming with a mysterious light in the fireplace glow.
“Apart from me, everyone here, including Lord Su Hui, is a native of this world.”
Upon hearing this, Angela's pupils suddenly contracted.
The gentle smile on her face could no longer be maintained, replaced by an incredulous shock.
Aboriginal people?
A native human not only broke through the boundaries of the extraordinary, but also stepped into a legendary realm that even she had to face?
how can that be!
According to her analysis of the rules of this world, there is a clear upper limit to the level of life here, and the Holy Realm is the pinnacle that can be reached at this stage.
Legends are a concept belonging to another dimension.
A storm raged within her, and the way she looked at Su Hui completely changed.
It was no longer a scrutiny of a powerful visitor, but an extreme regard for an existence that had broken the rules of the world and represented "miracle" and "unknown".
What alarmed her even more was that almost all of his followers were powerful superhumans.
Especially the silver-haired girl in front of him who spoke; the energy fluctuations emanating from her body, though subtle, were terrifyingly pure. Her level was definitely no less than any peak Saint Realm expert, second only to the oppressive feeling Su Hui gave her.
Such a luxurious lineup is led by a native being from this world.
The implications of this are terrifying.
A brief silence fell over the living room, broken only by the crackling of the fire in the fireplace.
Angela took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in her heart. She quickly composed herself, concealing the shock on her face and reappearing her gentle and kind smile. However, behind that smile lay a deep sense of apprehension. "Mei, are you here? Mei, are you not here? Are you free? Lin, are you here? Are you not here?"
"I see. I was presumptuous."
She stopped dwelling on the issue of identity and instead turned her attention to Claire.
“Since you’re here to find friends, I think we should grant Ms. Claire’s wish before answering your question.”
“Saran is on the farm. I’ll take you there to see her now.”
“Perfect timing. I’ll also take you on a tour of my ‘shelter’ along the way. This might answer some of your questions, Mr. Su Hui.”
This suggestion is reasonable, demonstrating her sincerity while cleverly avoiding a direct answer to the core issue.
"Alright."
Su Hui nodded, showing no intention of pressuring Angela, which was considered an agreement to her suggestion.
Angela rose gracefully, gestured to everyone, and then walked out of the living room first.
As she took her first steps, her pristine white combat uniform clung tightly to her mature and voluptuous body. With each step, her pert and full hips outlined a breathtaking curve, and the tight-fitting material accentuated the rhythm and beauty of a mature woman with every stride.
As the group walked out of the main building, they immediately attracted the attention of the other survivors on the farm.
The arrival of Su Hui and his group had already sparked much discussion among the farm's survivors, and now that Angela was personally leading them, their curiosity only grew.
The women who were working in the fields or resting on the lawn stopped what they were doing and looked at them with curiosity, awe, and a hint of wariness.
They whispered among themselves, discussing the group of powerful strangers who had suddenly arrived.
Su Hui's gaze swept over the various details of the farm.
The buildings here are not traditional wooden houses or brick houses, but modular buildings full of technology. The gaps between the pieces are perfectly fitted, clearly indicating that they were quickly assembled after being produced as a whole.
In the fields, besides humans, there were also some small agricultural machines operating automatically. Their shapes were simple and streamlined, and they seemed to be harmless tools, but Su Hui's legendary perception could easily analyze their internal structure—as long as the modules were replaced, these agricultural mechs could be transformed into defensive units with powerful firepower at any time.
What interests him even more are the survivors here.
Looking around, almost everyone there was a woman, of all skin colors and ages, from vibrant young girls to elegant women. Each of them maintained a good appearance, and there were even some women with outstanding looks and graceful figures.
The system's investigation feedback further confirmed his judgment: among these people, there were quite a few "fitters" with potential for B-level or even A-level.
This is a huge treasure trove of talent.
"My hometown was once a beautiful world, with highly advanced technology and people living in peace and contentment."
As Angela led the way, she calmly recounted her origins.
"However, that place was also invaded by dimensional demons. We fought hard but still could not survive, and in the end, the whole world was destroyed."
"After that, I wandered between dimensions. I grew tired of the endless wars and killings, and then I unexpectedly came to this world."
"After observing this 'singularity,' I used its unstable spatial energy, combined with the technology of our world, to build this small 'sanctuary,' hoping to preserve a pure land that can be called 'home' for those innocent souls."
Her voice carried a hint of melancholy, and sounded incredibly sincere.
"Is this energy shield constructed using the energy source of the singularity? It's incredibly sophisticated technology."
Merlin looked up at the invisible protective shield, his blood-red pupils flashing with inquiry, and asked Angela a question.
"Yes, this energy shield is built on an environmental modification system."
In response to Merlin's curiosity about the invisible shield, Angela patiently explained, "It can stabilize the spatial energy spilling from the singularity, converting it into thermal and biological energy, reversing the local environmental entropy value, and thus creating this habitable area."
"As for these modification technologies..."
She looked at Su Hui and replied frankly, "They all come from the base manufacturing platform that I carry with me. As long as there is enough energy and basic materials, they can be produced continuously."
Can this manufacturing platform be replicated and reused?
Upon hearing Angela's story, Su Hui's eyes lit up.
"of course can."
Angela clearly understood Su Hui's thoughts and nodded in reply, "This was originally created by us to terraform planets; everything is for the purpose of creating a better living environment."
Afterwards, Angela described to Su Hui and the others the super technologies she possessed and their functions, occasionally pointing out and introducing the machinery on the farm.
During the conversation,
The group quickly arrived at the other side of the farm.
Not far away, a small agricultural mechanized machine was turning over the soil, its movements smooth and efficient.
Inside the mech's cockpit, a familiar figure came into Claire's view.
She had dazzling long golden hair, neatly tied into a high ponytail, which swayed gently with the movement of the mecha. Sweat soaked a few strands of hair on her forehead, which slid down her well-defined cheeks.
Even just a side profile reveals the sharpness and definition of her features. Her icy blue eyes are fixed intently on the land ahead, exuding a soldier's unwavering resolve.
Her bare arms, with their smooth and toned muscle lines, exuded an explosive power, which, combined with her tall, curvaceous, model-like figure, created a wild yet captivating charm.
It was Saran Johnson.
"Salan!"
The moment Claire saw that figure, she could no longer contain her excitement and blurted out.
Hearing the shout, the blonde woman piloting the mecha paused. She deactivated the mechanical arm, opened the cockpit, and nimbly jumped down from the half-person-high mecha.
She turned around, revealing a pretty face with sharp features and a touch of heroism. Her icy blue eyes were instantly filled with surprise and disbelief when she saw Claire.
"Claire?!"
Just as Claire and Saran Johnson reunited, Su Hui's gaze passed over them and landed on a uniquely shaped windmill building not far away.
Alongside him was Merlin's watchful gaze.
They all discovered that the building was the location of the singularity.
The originally chaotic and disordered dimensional energy in the singularity was guided by Angela in an unknown way and became the energy center supporting the entire farm estate.
"Really you?!"
Saran Johnson's voice was filled with uncontrollable surprise. She strode forward, her icy blue eyes fixed on Claire, as if to confirm that what she was seeing was not an illusion.
Two friends struggling to survive in the apocalypse finally embraced tightly at this moment.
There were no many words, only a tight hug, conveying the excitement and relief of finding each other again.
After a moment, the two slowly separated, and Claire wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I thought I'd never see you again."
Saran's voice was slightly hoarse as she released Claire, her icy blue eyes carefully scrutinizing her friend to make sure she was unharmed.
Claire shook her head, her pale pink hair swaying as she turned to introduce Su Hui to her best friend.
Her gaze toward Su Hui was filled with gratitude, a complex mix of awe, dependence, and a sense of belonging.
"Salan, this is Mr. Su Hui."
"He saved me, and... gave me a new home."
Claire explained solemnly.
Saran Johnson's gaze instantly shifted to Su Hui, a scrutiny honed by professional training, sharp as a hawk, leaving no detail overlooked.
She saw a man who was unfathomable.
He simply stood there calmly, yet he seemed to be the center of the entire world. The invisible pressure emanating from him made even this battle-hardened elite police officer tremble from the depths of her soul.
She immediately understood that the man before her was terrifying, yet also the only reason Claire was able to survive unscathed in this apocalyptic world.
"Thank you, Mr. Su Hui."
Saran suppressed all surprise and emotion, and extended his hand to Su Hui with a posture that was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Thank you for saving Claire."
Su Hui looked Salan over carefully, smiled, nodded, and extended his hand to shake hers.
As an S-class adaptor, Su Hui had already made up his mind to take Saran as his woman.
Angela walked over at just the right moment, a pure and gentle smile on her face that seemed to soothe any turmoil in one's heart.
"It seems we have every reason to hold a grand welcome banquet tonight."
She looked at Su Hui, her azure eyes filled with a sincere invitation.
“Mr. Su Hui, if you don’t mind, please stay here with your companions tonight, so that we can do our best to be your hosts.”
"it is good."
Faced with Angela's invitation and seeing that Claire and Saran were already chatting, Su Hui did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
Su Hui withdrew his gaze from the windmill building that served as the core of the singularity not far away, a smile playing on his lips as he temporarily suppressed his curiosity.
Not urgent.
Since Angela is intentionally hiding it, let's see what she's really up to.
As night falls, the farm and estate are brightly lit.
In the main building's restaurant, a long table was laden with dishes, and the lavishness of the banquet exceeded everyone's expectations.
A white tablecloth was laid out on the long dining table, and exquisite silver cutlery was set out.
The birds are roasted to a golden and crispy perfection, with tender and juicy white meat underneath. A gentle touch releases scalding hot juices.
The tender and juicy steak, with its enticing pink color revealed when cut open, paired with a rich black pepper sauce, is an ultimate delight with every bite.
